SUMMARY:Webinar Series on Farmer-Led Irrigation Development (FLI)
DESCRIPTION:Please join us for an exciting\, new webinar series on farmer-led irrigation development (FLI)! The first session will be held on June 11\, 2020 at 13:00-14:00 UTC. \nAbout\nFarmer-led irrigation development (FLI) has gained increased attention by government institutions\, development and implementation partners as one of the potential solutions to build climate resilience for smallholder farmers and transform food systems to support healthy diets for all. Furthermore\, the knock-on effects of health-related disasters such as the Covid-19 pandemic on market disruptions impacting food and nutrition security\, enforces the urgency to increase multiple purpose water access and increase local community resilience. \nThe question arises on how we can accelerate sustainable scaling of FLI given the challenges of underdeveloped irrigation supply chains\, high upfront costs and lack finance/business models\, lack or underdeveloped markets and agricultural value chains (especially for high value crops)\, gender and social inclusion gaps in access to and benefits from FLI\, and limited water resource governance. \nThe International Water Management Institute (IWMI) together with the World Bank\, The Daugherty Water for Food Global Institute and the Global Water Partnership (GWP) are hosting a virtual mini-series to discuss key issues and identify a way forward for operationalizing sustainable and inclusive scaling of farmer-led irrigation development. The webinar series is geared towards practitioners\, policy makers\, private sector and researchers interested in further advancing FLI globally and overcoming the often observed systemic barriers in reaching scale. \nSPEAKERS\nRegassa Namara\, The World Bank Group\nClaudia Sadoff\, International Water Management Institute\nThai Thi Minh\, International Water Management Institute\nNicholas Brozovic\, Daugherty Water for Food Global Institute\nNicole Lefore\, Innovation Laboratory for Small Scale Irrigation\, Borlaug Institute for International Agriculture Development\nSamir Ibrahim\, Sunculture\nPhil Woodhouse\, University of Manchester\, SAFI-network \nFor more information and to register click here
